The wine was our favorite on the island from the local winery close by in Orotava. We wish we had discovered this sooner so we could enjoy the beautiful view from the terrace during the daytime.

Amazing place. I loved it. My wife and I found it's accidentally, however we returned back to the…read morerestaurant on next day as it is the best restaurant that we visited on the Tenerife. There are a lot sea food and fish to choose. We tasted paella and sea food table. Be ready that portions are huge. It addition you will have a desert (in our case it was ice cream) as a compliment from the owner. And if the end he brought, again as a compliment from the restaurant, a bottle of melisita, an amazing alcohol drink.

So we have followed the only recommendation of this restaurant and we are DEFINITELY satisfied!!! Apart from the nice service the home made bread tastes with the dip and the Pardon Peppers- the fried green peppers (I hope I wrote it right)has also left a great impression! The paella was made fresh, so it's worthy waiting half an hour for this!

Had a group of 16, ordered paella for 6 (it's made fresh here, they need at least 30 minutes…read morenotice!) and rest ordered a la carte - everything was excellent and the service was great, what I expect people mean with the cliched "like family" expression. Cafe con leche and desserts (we tried the creme brûlée, tiramisu and chocolate mousse) were also excellent. Bottom line: you can't go wrong here!

It was a very special evening for my wife and I, so I reserved the upper terrace table (see…read morepicture) at 'El Regulo'. It ended up being a very special evening. Here are the highlights: We had earlier reservations, but were late. No problem. The staff there were very friendly, and they saved our spot (just let them know via phone that you're still coming). The ambiance of this place is great! (5 star) It is an old house that was converted into a restaurant, and the central plaza that connected all of the rooms has been converted into the central dining area. They have hung ferns and other plants all over the place. The menu was presented in several languages, so ordering was easy. Our waiter was friendly, although he was very busy taking care of his guests (the waiter to guest ratio is very high on the island). We ordered the soup made exclusively from vegetables grown from the Canary Islands, and the mixed seafood grill for two. The soup was delicious, and the seafood grill was wonderful, although all of the seafood came in the shell (we weren't expecting that - our weakness, not the restaurant's). The grill had lobster, large jumbo prawns, clams, and muscles. It was delicious, and the had tartar and salsa to compliment the food (not that it was needed). My wife had a small bottle of Viña Esmeralda 2011, and I had a small bottle of Monje, a red Rioja from the Canaries. For dessert, my wife had a mango parfait, and I had the white and dark chocolate mousse (see pictures). To top it off, we had coffee and watched the other diners below us (amazing how many speak German). I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone staying in Puerto de la Cruz. Plan ahead and make reservations though, because this place is very popular.

As a recomended Michelin one spoon and fork restaurant with describsion spimple I was a bit…read moreconfused. Anyway Michelin recomendation are allways a good recomendation with a few exeptions like cruise ships. We came to early for lunsh and had to wait in the street. Right across you can get your feet and hands done even by fish. Right on time they opened without to much friendliness, but still professional. The entrance has a maritime theme with bad lightning. I was first a bit supprised with two a bit dirty aquaria and without fish and shellfish. Next we came to a the head waiters desk and overlooked a great patio. The building are two floors with chambree separe and rooms enough to have big groups. The toilets where fresh and really nice. But the most charming where the turtle in a fountain in the middle of the patio, wow what a charm. We where seated in less comfy chairs, to steepand table to smal for four just enough for two. So building and interior is a six, draw for fish tanks, lighting on fish tanks and uncomfy chairs. I would say i five star interior and toilets. 25% value This would be my first touch with high end Tenerife service. The first impression was bussy and not to warm. This followed us troughout, they seemed a bit stressed. And english was not fluent to say it in a gentle way. But when thats said, pro dressed, pro acting and some charming moments. A litle off pairing winw and brew with food. Dirty plates where not remowed until late. And they want away with my VISA for a long time, and answered with bad excuses why when I asked, twice. Its hard to get good score without great first impression, without good english, slow removal of empty plates and a hidden Visa card. More or less than I expect. I say less, but the profesiality movet them up from two to three. 25% value. We ordered rabit and todays catch. I got to choose the size of the fish. Both taste like exellent homemade cooking. Presentation was traditional, and not much creativity. We asked what beer and wine they would pair and they dominated the rabit and fish. But alone very tasy local wine and brew. Fish came opend and not a filet, rabit in a great sause. Both plates lacked final touch og love and colour. I cant really rember the tastes so well four days later so it didnt make a big impression. Michelin was right simple cooking but well worth a going. Cooking a strong four = 4,5. 50% value They had a Bib gourmad i 2013 not anymore, why? Sum it up 2 x dinner, 2 x beer, 1/2 bottle red wine local, 2 x coffe and 1 x botle water = 47,29 = Good Value. And a turtle that just was a charm. 5 Euro tip where greatly appretiated. With better service and bit more creativ twist this is a five star place. Maybe that's why they are not Bib anymore?

Food is absolutely delicious, huge portions, service is not good…read more There's not a lot of tourists here because it's not located in the main tourist area. I came here at the recommendation of a local, and it definitely did not disappoint. I ordered an appetizer, the grilled cheese and the sea bass entrée. The grilled cheese is not what you expect at all, it was three very large pieces of cheese that had been grilled with sauce on it and it was absolutely unique and delicious. For the entrée I got the Seabass which came with coleslaw, the coleslaw had pieces of pineapple in it which gives a very tropical island fresh taste. The Seabass was grilled and not overcooked. The entrée also came with a basket of salted baked potatoes. Chimichiro and the chilichiro sauce were amazing, I poured that stuff all over on the baked potatoes., Which already had a pretty light salt flavor to them. After the meal, I got a shot of complementary sweet rum which was so absolutely delicious and so smooth going down, I could feel it within a couple of seconds. Followed by siesta time! Overall opiate nice restaurant, I would definitely come here again for the food.

What an hidden dimond…read more The place are modern, with wood at theme, light and cozy. It opened newly decoreated 1st October 2015 so its not worn. Even without cushings on hard wood the chairs where nice. This very modern and I felt at home as a modern nordic european. This not super fancy but really nice. Five stars, 25 pst value. Service was done by a modern young man. Cool glasses, cool beard, cool way of beeing, open and friendly, wow nice. His english was not to good. And the price fir the set menu that was written on the chalk board of 39 was pronounsed 29 allso after a double chech. Confusion started in my head. It did not get any better when soup became soap. Food came perfectly timed, it was hot and dishes got taken away. With bad english and a ton of modern charm I have to end this at four. 25pst value. And now the BIG supprise, wow what a food at what a price. They had a six course meal with homade bread, smal welcome dish, 2x entrance, 1x fish, 1 x meat, 2 x dessert for 39 EURO! And this where nothing you would do at home unless you are stolen Michelin chef from the surrounding best ranked Michelin restaurant. Let me walk you trough the dinner: first a basked of four different breads with a pest, tomato pesto, oil, salt and butter. I ate half mmm nice. Then he came with a local chees crocette, hevy but balanced. First entrance a tunafish tartar blended in sweet an sour out a balikum sorbet, an explosion of good tasted. Talking about making a good first impression. Game was on Second entrace, that was too big and heavy, was creamed potato soup with poaced egg on a bed og basilikum oil and bacon crumble. Wow another time. My wife was full here, and i where concerned. Fish was local Sea bass? prepared with a safran sauce and a spoon of very good potato purre. This was good. Mead was duck cooced to perfection, sliced on top of a bed of sauted but still crisp vegetables. First dessert was cookie, chockate cake, chockate crumbles, choclate musse. That was very heavy cust choclate lovers like it. I went with mouse. A touch of contrau or wiskey might make it even better. Second dessert was a resberries and steawberries in chunks as a bes with the same in a sorbet. Overall food for Michelin star resturant and a Bib Gourmad. Food are beond yelp rating as a six, truly creative an vibrant. 50 pst What about value 2 x 39 + wine + cuba libre, coffe included, water included under 99 euro are superb. They actually just charged 30 for my wife. Walking home i where so full and happy. I had some bad thoughts about not tipping but he told me 29 for the menu and charged 39. Total: Interior (5 x 0,25)=1,25, Service (4 x 0,25)=1 with charm, Food (6 x 0,5) = 3 = 5,25 and over full score.
